Following her solo debut with “I,” Taeyeon continued to dominate as a solo artist with hits such as “Rain” and “Why.” Her song “11:11” from November was also a huge hit, and the new song will be her first release since then. With how she’s been dominating the music charts as a solo artist, news of Taeyeon’s upcoming release has already kept the industry on high alert.
With a release slated for late February, Taeyeon will face some incredibly strong competition. Popular male group BTS just made a comeback with their new album You Never Walk Alone, and top girl group TWICE will be releasing their new album TWICEcoaster: Lane 2 toward the end of the month. March is also lined up with popular artist releases, including GOT7, G-Friend, BTOB, and more. With Taeyeon joining this lineup, the charts will definitely be full of tough competition.
